Ripper, mutton scraps, one of my favourites, I wonder if I can get them all in my beak in one go. I might be pushing things, but I’ll have a darn good go at it.

Got ’em, now to find a nice spot to eat in peace, the old bloke’s always hiding behind the callistemon with his flamin’ camera, he thinks I can’t see him, strike me pink, how silly can you be? It’s worth humouring him though to get this good tucker, clever birds us ravens.

Edacious, voracious, or rapacious – take your pick. When we throw some scraps out for the chooks the Forest Ravens will sometimes sneak in and pile it up in the beak. They’re a bit timid though. The silver gulls sometimes come down in their hundreds but only at this time of year. Then thereare about 50 sparrows, a dozen starlings and a few Fairywrens. Occasionaly the chooks and ducks get a bit but only if we stand guard.
